Many traffic lights out. Surprising courtesy and patience being shown by most as they wait their turn and then go when they should. 5th straight day of rain. Everything is waterlogged.

Although I still have time to edit my post after Mark's well deserved finger pointing, explaining my error will prove more fun.... "Holt tight." is a local joke that I didn't indent to type but it came out that way. It basically makes fun of people around here where one of the local euphemisms is the word "holt" for "hold" as in "He had him in a big wrastlin (wrestling) holt." or "He had a holt of him like an angry crab." I blame our proximity to Newfoundland.
With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

Power back on overnight. Good to be home in my own digs. All is well.

Thanks guys. Busy throwing out, and replacing, food that spoiled in the fridge and thawed in the freezer. There's no place like home no matter how humble.
